Notes
  • Significance: The remains of the Patent Arms Manufacturing Co., constructed in 1836, comprise some of the oldest building stock in the Historic District of Paterson. The lot was originally leased in 1813 to a firm which constructed a rolling mill and nail factory there. In 1836, the entire lot was leased to the Patent Arms Manufacturing Company. The Company tore down the nail factory and built a four story brownstone structure measuring 100 x 40 feet, in which the manufacture of Colt revolvers was undertaken. The first silk processing in Paterson also took place in this structure. In the 1840s, as the demand for silk grew, the mill was expanded by the addition of three new buildings. The gun factory closed in 1842, and the premises was devoted to various textile industries for many years, until the 1870s when Joshua Mason began to manufacture radiators in one of the outbuildings. Textile manufacturers have continued to use most of the mill's space to this date.
